Description

JUMPSEAT FOR AN EMERGENCY TRANSPORT VEHICLE
RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] The current application claims priority for US Patent Application No. 15/831,824 filed on 5 December 2017, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
TECHNICAL FIELD [0002] The invention relates to emergency transport vehicles and more particularly, to a jumpseat for an emergency transport vehicle having a patient compartment that includes a medical scanning device and a patient stretcher wherein the jumpseat is moveable between a stowed position wherein a post element and a seating element are substantially horizontal and a deployed position wherein the post element is substantially vertical and the seating element is substantially horizontal and located in a clearance space between the scanning device and a head end of the stretcher and in-line with a patient’s body axis.
BACKGROUND [0003] Emergency transport vehicles, such as ambulances, typically include a dedicated seat that is used for performing a medical procedure, such as an intubation procedure, on a patient. Referring to Fig. 1, an interior portion 10 of an ambulance is shown which depicts a dedicated seat 12 used for performing an intubation or other medical procedure. The seat 12 is located behind, or opposite, a head-end 14 of a patient stretcher 16. The seat 16 locates medical personnel, such as a physician or paramedic, in a preferred position that is in-line with a patient’s longitudinal body axis so that a safe and successful intubation of the patient is performed. For purposes of illustration, a patient’s longitudinal body axis corresponds to stretcher axis 17.
[0004] Referring to Fig. 2, an interior portion 12 of an ambulance configured as a mobile stroke unit (MSU) is shown. In this configuration, the space behind, or opposite, the head-end 14 of the stretcher 16 is occupied instead by medical equipment such as computed tomography (CT) scanner 18. Thus, space for a head-sided seat 14, such as in a conventional ambulance (see Fig. 1), is not available. As a result, medical personnel must employ workaround solutions to perform an intubation such as either standing or kneeling in between the stretcher 16 and the CT
AH25(21509543J ):MSD
2018253610 19 Jul 2019 scanner 18 or using a seat or bench that is parallel to the stretcher 16 (i.e. parallel to the stretcher axis 17). However, both solutions are not desirable because a paramedic’s ability to position themselves in-line with the stretcher axis 17 and thus with the patient’s longitudinal body axis is substantially impaired or not possible, thus compromising the ability to provide a safe and successful intubation of the patient.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0005] It is an object of the present invention to wholly or partly overcome one or more of the above disadvantages and drawbacks of the prior art, or at least provide a useful alternative.

[0018] In accordance with an aspect of the invention, a jumpseat is disclosed that may be used in an emergency transport vehicle, such as an ambulance configured as a mobile stroke unit (MSU), or other types of vehicles that do not provide a dedicated seat located at a head end of a patient. For purposes of illustration, the invention will be described in connection with an ambulance configured as an MSU.
[0019] Referring to Fig. 3, a schematic top view is shown of an ambulance 20 configured as an MSU ahaving an operator cab portion 22 and a patient compartment 24 that receives and treats a patient. In particular, Fig. 3 depicts an interior portion 26 of the patient compartment 24. The patient compartment 24 includes the stretcher 16 which is located between first 28 and second 30 rows of benches, seats, cabinets and other known ambulance equipment. The patient compartment 24 also includes a medical scanning device 32 such as a CT scanner that is spaced apart from the head-end 14 of the stretcher 16 to form a clearance space 34 between the scanning device 32 and the head-end 14 of the stretcher 16.
[0020] In accordance with an aspect of the invention, the patient compartment 24 further includes an emergency jumpseat 37 that is moveable between a down or stowed position and an up or deployed position. The jumpseat 37 includes a seating element 36 and a rotatable seatpost 42. Fig. 3A is an enlarged view of the jumpseat 37 in the stowed position. In the stowed position, the seating element 36 and seatpost 42 are folded into a receptacle 38 formed in a floor portion 40 of the patient compartment 24 located in the clearance space 34. The receptacle 38 may be covered by a floor panel (not shown for purposes of clarity) that forms part of the floor portion 40 to enable walking and use of the clearance space 34 by medical personnel.
[0021] Referring to Figs. 4 and 4A, the jumpseat 37 is shown in the deployed position. Fig. 4A is a view of the jumpseat 37 along view line 4A-4A of Fig. 4. When the jumpseat 37 is needed
AH25(21509543J ):MSD
2018253610 26 Oct 2018 during an emergency, for example, the jumpseat 37 is lifted from the floor portion 40 and extended into the deployed position. In the deployed position, the seating element 36 is located at a predetermined height above the floor portion 40, at the head end 14 of the stretcher 16 and in-line with the stretcher axis 17. This provides suitable seating for medical personnel that is inline with a patient’s body axis to facilitate intubation of the patient and perform other medical procedures or tasks.
[0022] The seating element 36 is supported by the seatpost 42. A bottom portion 44 of the seatpost 42 is rotatably connected to a wall 46 of the receptacle 38 by a first hinge 48. A top portion 50 of the seatpost 42 is rotatably connected to an end portion 52 of the seating element by a second hinge 54. The first hinge 48 enables rotation of the seatpost 42 relative to the floor portion 40 and the second hinge 54 enables rotation of the seating element 36 relative to the seatpost 42. In the stowed position, the seatpost 42 and seating element 36 are oriented substantially horizontally within the receptacle 38 as shown in Figs. 3 and 3 A. In order to move the seating element 36 to the deployed position, the seatpost 42 is rotated about the first hinge 48 relative to the floor portion 40 to a substantially vertical position that also lifts or elevates the seating element 36 from the floor portion 40. The seating element 36 is then rotated about the second hinge 54 relative to the vertical seatpost 42 to a substantially horizontal position suitable for providing seating for medical personnel. The first 48 and second 54 hinges may be commercially available hinges such as those sold by Heyman Manufacturing GmbH, of Giessen, Germany.
[0023] In an embodiment, the seatpost 42 and seating element 36 may be locked in the vertical and horizontal positions by associated locking elements. In addition, the first 48 and second 54 hinges may each include a spring mechanism to provide a spring bias that facilitates rotation of the seatpost 42 and the seating element 36. In another embodiment, the seatpost 42 may have a telescopic arrangement that enables the seatpost 42 to be extended substantially vertically from the receptacle 38 to position the jumpseat 37 in the deployed position. The seatpost 42 may then be retracted or collapsed into the receptacle 38 when not in use. In another embodiment, a scissor lift arrangement may be used to move the jumpseat 37 between the stowed and deployed positions. Alternatively, a gear arrangement such as a rack and pinion arrangement may be used to move the jumpseat 37 between the stowed and deployed positions. It is understood that other extendable and retractable mechanisms, devices or linkages may be used to move the jumpseat between the stowed and deployed positions.
AH25(21509543J ):MSD
2018253610 31 May 2019 [0024] In another embodiment, the scanning device 32 may be moveable and/or reconfigured by removing components in front of the scanning device 32, thus increasing the amount of clearance space 34. In accordance with an embodiment of the invention, the second hinge 54 includes a track or guide arrangement to enable movement of the seating element 36 in an axial direction 56 in-line with the stretcher axis 17 to move into the increased space created by movement and/or reconfiguring of the scanning device 32 to provide additional space in between the scanning device 32 and the stretcher 16 for medical personnel.
[0025] While particular embodiments of the present disclosure have been illustrated and described, it would be obvious to those skilled in the art that various other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure.
